As a kid in the late 50s I used to deliver evening papers to this factory in Kensal Green, and I was mesmerised by the work of these craftsmen. No CNC equipment in those days as far as I was aware, and asked if they would employ me on an an apprenticeship when I left school. Two things happened, I got sacked from my paper job for spending too much time in there, and failed my O Level metalwork. But I still to this day remember the smells, and the unguarded pulleys driving the machinery. Beautiful memories.
These are shotguns and rifles for the very wealthy, so I'd doubt this factory will ever close or be restricted in any way. One of these shotguns would likely cost half the value of my current home. That having said craftsmanship of this caliber (pun intended) should never be lost even though the vast majority of people may never own one. It's still a pleasure to watch such skilled hand craftsmanship in an era of mass production.
More like, it is a multi tiered legal system that treats the average person like a criminal and a peasant, while the upper classes have the right to self defense.
@@mgpBLARG Is it? Self defense is not a valid reason for gun ownership under any circumstance. Any 'normal' person can obtain a license with proper reasoning, i.e sporting.
@@Rezcuz "Normal" LOL, you have to ask the government for permission, you are required to have 2 referees to vouch for you who have known you for over 2 years, you can't own handguns, if you got into any form of trouble as a child, you can't even buy an airgun, you must "have a good reason to own a firearm" which is extremely subjective, the police will search your property before granting a license, and worst of all, you can't use the gun for it's intended purpose... to protect yourself and your family. Even if you are armed, you will still be guaranteed to be a victim.
I'm a carpenter and joiner by trade and I can fully appreciate the skill that goes into this as I am in the middle of making a stock for my shotgun. This was a pleasure to watch,a real pleasure. You can train to become a good craftsman but to become great you have to be naturally gifted and all these people are gifted.
Every time I see this video, I am truly amazed that many of the time-honored techniques still exist. All without one solitary word spoken. Wonderful video.
I didn't even know it was possible to be this good at handcrafting. If I had the budget for it I'd absolutely pick up one of these firearms, if not two, one for shooting and one for displaying
I have never in my 65 years been so moved by beauty, grace and magnificence of what true craftsmanship. To see this and also hear the beauty of the wonderful musical accompaniment, was an absolute joy. This presentation was a joy to behold and a delight to hear. Bravo, gentlemen, Bravo!
Total respect for the craftsmanship required to build such timeless works of art with superb functionality. They are as beautiful in a gun case as they are in the field. Many thanks.

I have watched this video several times and every time I am thrilled to watch these craftsmen work in a masterly way. As an Italian, I congratulate Holland & Holland for the splendid product they offer.
My father in law was one of those skilled craftsman employed by Holland and Holland. He started as a young apprentice like his father and father before him. He is dead now, but he worked on every piece of those guns, in his later years specialised on the "action" part of the gun. I was privileged to be shown around the gun factory by him in the early 1970's, it was like stepping back in time.
I have watched this video at least 30-40 times. The music combined with the work being done is so relaxing and at the same time hypnotizing. I am a great fan of fine English shotguns and to me these are the epitome
I’ve watched a few Holland & Holland videos over and over; the hand craftsmanship is beyond amazing. Owning one of these rifles makes we want to be a millionaire more than any other reason.
Nothing so more pleasurable to me than to see such skilled artisans create a work of art like that. It's little wonder they're as valuable as they are, both the people and the guns.
WOW! just beautifully done from the craftsmen to the video production! As a retired machinist/toolmaker, I enjoyed this video immensely. The only thing I have not done of these processes is the engraving. The young lady shown in the engraving process was unbelievable - that is You can tell by a person's hands if they were a machinist for long. A machinist's hands are muscular and very rugged looking. Pushing an engraving tool through steel all day long for any length of time would make one's hands extremely strong and it would be very evident. That young lady had perfect nails and skin. Unbelievable.
I stumbled upon this video completely by accident, and it almost brought a tear to my eye! The music, which can only be described as a 'masterpiece' is equaled only by the pure perfection achieved by the craftsmen and craftswomen of Holland & Holland. It's ironic that a weapon of death is also a brilliant representation of mankind at it's finest. It gives me hope to know that out there, in the maelstrom of mass production and questionable quality, there exist small companies that adhere to the old ways, who happily sacrifice speed of manufacture in quest for perfection... who employ people of all ages that love their work and take great pride in what they do, every single day, in the hope that some day they will progress from apprentice to master, and pass on their art to the next generation. Your completed guns share their brilliance with the finest time pieces on earth and represent what can be achieved by a parson with time, patience, a couple of centuries of knowledge, some old tools and a dream. Bravo, Holland & Holland!
dbsill cockney • I know, right? It's a shame I feel I have to say this, but I, and almost my entire family have served for over three generations. My grandfather was at Omaha beach with two silver stars, (among many other commendations,) to show for it. We all own firearms. Always have. Probably always will. And we're all shameless liberals. The "right" doesn't own this country; they don't own patriotism, and they sure as hell don't own the second amendment. They don't seem to know that. Go figure...
Adam Kann Anything can be a weapon of death- a knife, a nailcutter, pair of scissors, a pillow, a rope....it is better to call it a weapon of self defence!
Having worked in an old mould shop with TRUE craftsmen, I can really appreciate the skill and dedication of the final product from these artists. Did you notice that one of the screwdrivers was hand made? Most of their tools are. I so miss working with my old buddies at that mould shop. That old shop has been closed for years but my memories are still fresh. It's great to still see real craftsmen working with such dedication.
From watching other gunmaking shop tours, when these craftsmen start their journeys as apprentices, their first job is to build all of the tools they will be using for their career. Their tools need to last a lifetime, so they get built once, built right, and never abused.
Cormac used is 10 to 20k US, new is about 200k. The prices range wildly, also it’s not just a gun, it’s a lifestyle; if you look up the showrooms they have everything from hunting jackets to silver plated shotgun shells. It’s very high-end... Sorry, VERY High-End.
I treat all my rifles like they're the last ones on earth, to watch them being made and created into a work of art is a thrill. If I were wealthy....forget cars and large homes, just visiting this place I would leave with most of their inventory :) I think I'll save this video for days that I'm depressed.
Artificial intelligence, robotics and future technologies will never take away craftsmanship like this. Absolutely stunning work! Thanks so much for posting the video.
Absolutely gorgeous! As a shooter on an extreme budget I have the upmost respect for the craftsmanship involved as well as the people who can appreciate and commission such works of art.
Coming from a family business where perfection is everything, this just blows me away. Lets hope there are enough people prepared to pay for the profitable continuation of these beautiful pieces. Stephen Asprey
Absolutely beautiful, I wish there were more manufacturers who put as much time and care into their firearms as you do. When I visited the New York showroom I was absolutely stunned. I'm proud to say I own one of these works of art.
+scrooglemcdoogle and people want something they can use and actually afford, that's why people don't spend time manually engraving shit on gun. There only needs to be a few of these manufactures to appease people with more money then sense.
You can argue about gun ownership all you like but, you cannot argue about the craftsmanship of the people making these guns. Just stunning to see and, as someone who has shot a Holland and Holland shotgun they feel lovely in the hand. Wish I had the money to buy one.
THis guns are made fore aristrokratic client, over all the centuries. The maker are not free peaple, they are forced to do the job. The maker are not craftsman . like today.
The way these people do their job is astounding. You can tell by the way they handle each component; each person in their respective department; whether it be the stock, reciever, barrel, engraver; you can tell they dont just do their job for the money. They do their job because it's something they _love._ They're dedicated to it, and they put their soul into it. In the end, it's a true art.
Nic krásnějšího než "ruční" výrobu zbraní jsem ještě neviděl, a pro to že mě baví precizní práce, tak bych si to hrozně rád někdy a někde vyzkoušel.Pánové, máte můj obdiv, a přeji hodně úspěchů.
I don't think I'd ever want to disrespect the hours of craftmanship and attention to detail put into one of these shotguns....by actually firing the gun and letting a lick of dirt or carbon touch anywhere!
WOW.....just amazing!!! My grandfather owned a Holland and Holland,it was a proud possession in the family,and passed on to the third generation now,more than a hundred years old now :)
What a long road since our ancestor's bows... Since the discovery of gunpowder, decades of craftsmanship knowledge passed on and improved on, here we are.
Exquisite, superb, outstanding workmanship on all their firearms. I had the very fortunate opportunity to fire a close friends very beautiful shotgun and one of his rifles. It was an honour to be allowed to fire them. I only wish I had finances to purchase such exquisite beauty, craftsmanship of exceptional quality. Holland and Holland are true legends of gunsmithing, very very high standard of manufacturing.
I think the best thing about this video is that all the workers look seasoned and fully devoted to making perfectly precise and beautiful machines! I dont own any weapons, but seeing this artwork makes me want to convert if not to only display the beautiful engraving and function. TAKE THAT BACK, I'm not spending $50-100k on these guns.
Humans are remarkable and amazing beings. This piece of music and the instruments it was played on if you think about was created by people and then the skill needed to play them to create this music is simply beyond words. I could and do say the same about the people who create these beautiful firearms. The skill needed is remarkable but yet they do it day in and day out always producing the same beauty and functionability. Truly a one of a kind.............
Sometimes, high-technology isn't worth it, I'm a technophobe. My father was a Eurpean-trained carpenter/cabinet-maker. The love he had for his trade he passed on to me from the age of six. I PROUDLY carry on his legacy by teaching my son and daughter.😀
Somebody commented in a car maker video how dark and depressing the british factories still are on the inside. It appears to be a tradition set by... who?
I wish I had the money to buy one of these. The art, precision and craft that go into these is amazing. The fit and finish second to none. Pieces that can be handed down the generations increasing in value with the years. Not to mention the shear pleasure in shooting these.
Go for it ! Try To find a gunsmithing school there's not many but if your passionated about gunsmithing you'll not regret ! I started studying gunsmithing since 3 years in belgium (i moved from France to belgium) and its quite difficult but you learn so many interesting things and very useful
Beautiful hand crafted artistry by these people. The time it takes to do the engraving whether on wood or metal by hand is phenomenal I’m sure. Nice video but wish it would’ve been longer showing more of the work done. Beautiful music as well.
wow just amazing watching these people such talent years of training ..i would love to go to the factory just to see from start to finish the work on a gun
I wish I had just a small amount of the craftsmanship those people have. I am now tryin to rebuild a couple of back action M/L locks. I had to make the tumblers from bar stock and will have to hand fit them to finish. This video has really inspired me to not get discouraged but to take my time and do a good job. I do induction brazing at my employ but nothing compared to that! I had to go back and watch it again..........
Craftsmanship of the masters. When I put on ma leather I made, and rock to sum Metallica, Delta Parole, Foo Fighters or the Smashing Pumpkins I feel like I can do anything in the whole wide world.
Imagine working in a shop where time is not the issue but perfection is. I think anyone who has used a firearm and held a file at work would be filled with respect for these elite craftsmen and crafts women. I know I do.
As a kid in the late 50s I used to deliver evening papers to this factory in Kensal Green, and I was mesmerised by the work of these craftsmen. No CNC equipment in those days as far as I was aware, and asked if they would employ me on an an apprenticeship when I left school. Two things happened, I got sacked from my paper job for spending too much time in there, and failed my O Level metalwork. But I still to this day remember the smells, and the unguarded pulleys driving the machinery. Beautiful memories.

I wish I had the money to buy one of these. The art, precision and craft that go into these is amazing. The fit and finish second to none. Pieces that can be handed down the generations increasing in value with the years. Not to mention the shear pleasure in shooting these.
Per 43 anni sono stato attrezzista. Voi non siete lavoratori, siete artisti!
Complimenti da un orso
I find the music as amazing as the rifle. Both are masterpieces
(Crying) This is so fuckin beautiful, one of my life dreams is to become a gunsmith
You go for it pal.
Go for it ! Try To find a gunsmithing school there's not many but if your passionated about gunsmithing you'll not regret ! I started studying gunsmithing since 3 years in belgium (i moved from France to belgium) and its quite difficult but you learn so many interesting things and very useful
Drop the anime first

Does any one else find this hand crafted firearm slightly arousing?

Slightly?
It's quite sexy.
ryan gonzalez I am typing with one hand as I watch this. 😁
It's An Orgasm.
Je suis ajusteur monteur et je comprend parfaitement le travail que vous faites
Je vous dit chapeau car vous êtes des artistes
Beautiful hand crafted artistry by these people. The time it takes to do the engraving whether on wood or metal by hand is phenomenal I’m sure. Nice video but wish it would’ve been longer showing more of the work done. Beautiful music as well.
I just think this level of achievement... craftsmanship, at H&H, is a brilliant display of human achievement.
Holy cow...that was amazing handmade..absolutely beautiful
wow just amazing watching these people such talent years of training ..i would love to go to the factory just to see from start to finish the work on a gun
Vídeo sensacional! Essas armas devem valer muito, pois o trabalho artesanal nelas é impecável.
The guy making the stock must be paid the most...astounding craftsmanship. Only 1 chance to get it right.
Piękne dzieło sztuki,pełen szacunek dla ekipy
Nothing spells quality like a finely crafted marvel of engineering.
Craftsmanship is an understatement ! Brilliant
Que trabajo tan delicado y meticuloso, el solo video en si mismo ya es una obra de arte.
Honestly an awsome video!
Thousands of salutes to the workers. Craftsmanship is rarity anywhere!
Love from Pakistan😍
I wish I had just a small amount of the craftsmanship those people have. I am now tryin to rebuild a couple of back action M/L locks. I had to make the tumblers from bar stock and will have to hand fit them to finish. This video has really inspired me to not get discouraged but to take my time and do a good job. I do induction brazing at my employ but nothing compared to that! I had to go back and watch it again..........
Craftsmanship of the masters. When I put on ma leather I made, and rock to sum Metallica, Delta Parole, Foo Fighters or the Smashing Pumpkins I feel like I can do anything in the whole wide world.
Imagine working in a shop where time is not the issue but perfection is. I think anyone who has used a firearm and held a file at work would be filled with respect for these elite craftsmen and crafts women. I know I do.
Amazing how you've turned something so deadly in to something so beautiful. Kudos.
Fantastic. Thanks to all the people who make this happen.
Beautiful, true English craftsmanship at work here

Incredible craftsmanship, I hope that I can own one of these masterpieces someday.
I could sit here for hours watching these kind of videos.
Absolutely great craftsmen and craftswomenship. The quality of the end product is why it is one of the best in the World.
Just perfect. I would love to buy one of those beautiful weapons for my collection.
Almost an honour to be shot with such a piece of artwork.
